DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT OR ANY OF THE CHARACTERS BESIDE ELENA ENEAS, JENNESA CHOLE, AND SEAN CARLSON. THEY ALL BELONG TO STEPHENIE MEYER.
The One I want.
I found myself frozen outside of his house. I wanted to move, but for some reason my body wouldn't let me. I haven't felt this useless since… My mind wandered to the day my father was killed and my eyes closed, not wanting to remember it again.
"What a surprise." My eyes opened again hearing a voice and I turned, finding the person I've been looking for standing behind me, his scent mixed with the blood of a bear. He noticed and he smiled slightly. "They're in season, you know? Still nice and plump from the winter." I stared at him amazed that he could still be joking after what happened. His smile faded just as quickly as it appeared. "Why are you here, Elena?" He asked in a voice that made me take a step back. My stare lowered to the ground for a moment before I looked back up at him.
"I'm sorry, Sean. I didn't mean what I said back there."
"Don't worry, I understand." He said, walking past me towards the house. "You should get back to your family before they get worried." He said but I walked forward and grabbed onto his arm.
"No, you don't understand. I know what a singer is, I had one once." I admitted and he turned around, his amber-red eyes staring down at me. "I was scared of you because I-"
"Scared of me? What did I do?" He asked and my grip on his arm tightened for a moment.
"I was scared of falling in love again!" I said and his expression softened.
"What?"
"I was in love with my singer, but he was dying from a disease so I separated myself from him, not wanting to feel the pain of loosing someone I loved all over again. When I came back to visit my uncle, he was there, as a vampire, and everything I felt for him before came rushing back, but eventually he decided that it would be best if we didn't continue on in a relationship…" I wanted to hide for telling him everything, things I didn't even tell Jennesa. To make things even worse, his face held the same expression that he had on two days ago. "I was scared, but I'm not anymore. You're the only person whose managed to draw out my true smile every time I see you or when I think of you. I didn't realize that before, but after knowing that you had left, everything changed. You're like my singer……I just can't stay away from you, Sean." I didn't know, until I finished that statement, that I was hugging him. His body was warm against mine and his scent was even sweeter then how Edward's was when he was still human. My eyes fluttered close as I inhaled, my arms bringing him closer to me. "I don't know why or how, but ever since I met you, I've loved you, Sean." I whispered, afraid to hear his response. I wasn't really shocked, but more glad, when his arms wrapped around me. We stood like that for a human minute before his hand reached under my chin, lifting my face towards his.
"I knew you'd come around." He smirked and I laughed, pushing away from him. He smiled and grabbed onto my hands, pulling me back towards him. "And where are you going?" He asked as he placed my hands just above his chest and then sliding his hands down my arms, past my shoulders, stopping on my waist.
"You are a conceited blood sucker." I said and he pouted slightly.
"Ouch, I've never heard that one before." I smiled and he chuckled, pressing me against his body. "I'll have to add that to my list." He said, looking away from me for a moment and then looking back down. "You know, it wasn't until I met you that my ideas about this whole vampire ordeal changed. I used to think it was a curse, but because of you, it's more like a blessing." My eyes grew at his words and it was then that I noticed why I loved him. I smiled slightly and leaned my head against his shoulder. He lowered his head until his chin was resting on my shoulder. "Let me be with you, Elena…" He whispered, his arms hugging me tighter to him. I lifted my head and he followed, our eyes meeting.
"You're the only one I want."
His lips pressed against mine and everything else in the world didn't seem to matter. Everything about him felt right…perfect. The way his body fit perfectly against mine, the way his warmth and scent washed over me, almost intoxicatingly, and the way his kiss made me forget about everything that mattered to me. What Violet wrote to Jen was true. I did love Edward once upon a time, but Sean was the one I was truly meant to be with. He was my missing happiness. And now, he was mine.
